Yeah! The last I was here was Saturday. I missed you all!! I hit my 2 week mark yesterday.So I am 15 days free today! I had Terri post for me on Sunday because the library was closed. I woke up Monday with intentions of scooting on down to the library. However, when I got moving around I knew something was up. My blood ox was at 80%. I got the oxygen on and quickly got it to 89%. It took awhile to get it to 94% which is pretty good for me. Then my blood pressure was up. all because ?? I have no idea. Today the ox was at 94% and BP back to normal. I've called in for an appt with the pulmo. I wanted to go see him anyway since i quit smoking. It's 9 pm and i feel pretty good now.

I see we have alot of newbies. Welcome to all!! You are at the right place.

You may be wondering how I got to come back. Let's just say I have very good friends in very high places, with very large hearts. They know who they are!!

Hello, I am a 59 year old female, name Terrie, still growing up. I have moderate COPD. I am an oxygen patient, currently not in need of the 24/7 or night time oxygen. Thanks to all the great support and education I got here on EX. My original quit date was 07/06/15 on day 519 I relapsed and started over in less than 24 hours. I want to go to the great beyond being a former smoker and I shall! COPD is not choosy! and not pretty! May 1rst, 2017 I am using Dale's suggestion to put off a cigarette each time and I am down from 50 to 20. I am looking forward to my old(7-6-2015)/new quit date 7-6-2017 May 4th, 2017 I started with Marlboro reds. Nicotine is a very assinine addiction. Once addicted I found I would smoke any of it including the little cigar/cigarettes, and it's still true since I threw away my quit and stopped being true to myself. I will smoke ANYTHING with nicotine in it to get the fix. I hate smoking! I am not having a problem stopping it's staying stopped, that I am not doing! I do not buy anything but regular tobacco but if caught without it I will do anything except vape to get the fix. UPDATE POSTED 04/24/2018: Getting ready to set a quit date and begin again :)
